# sshfs -o direct_io,nonempty,allow_other,cache=no,compression=no,workaround=rename,workaround=nodelaysrv user@remote:/place/ /mnt/somewhere

For even more performance:

* On server, start socat:

# socat TCP4-LISTEN:7001 EXEC:/usr/lib/sftp-server

* On client, do:

# sshfs -o directport=7001,direct_io,nonempty,allow_other,cache=no,compression=no,workaround=rename,workaround=nodelaysrv user@remote:/place/ /mnt/somewhere
